PICS : Graeme Smith retires

Smith's retirement follows quickly on from that of Jacques Kallis who quit Test cricket at the end of last year, although Kallis is aiming to extend his ODI career to take part in the World Cup. Smith's one-day career had appeared to be on the wane when he was dropped after last year's series against Pakistan in the UAE; in 197 ODIs he scored 6989 runs at 37.98 with 10 hundreds.
